Description
Summary:This paper deals with particular issues in detection of human body’s movement using contactless sensor and consecutive application of recorded data on avatars model.We aimed at applying transformations to the skeleton model and skin of the avatar. Initial stages include choice of proper sensor and appropriate methods for transformation description. A semi-immersive virtual reality training system in the form of a fitting room has been chosen as a particular implementation of the body movement detection and application. The fitting room was selected because of its entertaining nature and a potential to be used as a training system for handicapped people with movement impairments.
